Wojnarowski noted that Lyles' deal will cover two years, though financial details were not immediately disclosed.

The 12th overall pick in the 2015 draft, Lyles spent the first two years of his career with the Utah Jazz. He wastradedto the Denver Nuggets in a 2017 draft-night deal that landed Donovan Mitchell in Utah.

Lyles is coming off a season in which he averaged 8.5 points and 3.8 rebounds per game for the Nuggets. He shot 41.8 percent from the floor, including a career-low 25.5 percent from three-point range. The 6'10", 234-pound forward also recorded a105.7 defensive rating, per NBA.com.

Denver initially extended a qualifying offer to Lyles earlier this summer. However, the Nuggetsrenouncedhis rights after acquiring Jerami Grant from the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday, making the veteran an unrestricted free agent.

Morris had previously committed to signing a two-year, $20 million contract with the Spurs, but Wojnarowski and ESPN colleague Marc J. Spears reported on Tuesday that the free agent was reconsidering the deal. The Spurs withdrew the offer Thursday. Soon after, Morris reached an agreement on a one-year, $15 million deal with the New York Knicks, perShams Charaniaof The Athletic and Stadium.

Morris toldCharaniaof his decision: "I had to make this decision based on the best situation for me and my family. This is no knock on the Spurs. I have respect for them."
